Meet Dawn Ianno, Founder & Principal Designer of Dawn Interiors
Dawn Ianno is the owner and founder of Dawn Interiors, a full-service luxury interior design firm based in Long Island, NY. With over 15 years of experience in the industry, Dawn has built a reputation for delivering timeless, elegant, and highly personalized interiors for residential projects across the United States.
Dawn’s passion for design began in childhood, inspired by her mother and grandmother. She fondly recalls visiting model homes just to admire their layouts and collect brochures filled with floor plans—long before she realized she was nurturing the eye of a future designer. That early curiosity turned into a lifelong calling. After graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from the New York Institute of Technology, Dawn launched her career at several prestigious firms across Nassau County, Long Island, and New York City.
Her professional background includes deep expertise in renovations, new construction, architectural detailing, and custom interiors. Today, through her own firm, she brings that experience and vision directly to her clients—guiding every project from initial concept to final installation, down to the last curated accessory.
At Dawn Interiors, there is no "one-style-fits-all" approach. Every design is tailored to reflect the individual style and lifestyle of the client. The firm specializes in luxury home renovations, working seamlessly with architects, contractors, and vendors to deliver both beautiful and highly functional spaces. Dawn and her team manage all aspects of the process, including:
Space planning, 3D renderings, detailed elevations, and lighting plans
Selection and procurement of all furnishings, materials, and fixtures
Custom cabinetry, tile, and plumbing layouts
Project budgeting and order tracking
Delivery coordination and installation oversight
Styling with accessories and artwork for a finished, cohesive look
With a hands-on and highly organized approach, Dawn ensures each design project runs smoothly and stress-free for her clients. Her goal is simple yet powerful: to design spaces that are as stunning as they are livable—spaces that truly feel like home.
